You know that what the Vatican published as the Pope’s speech to the Swiss bishops yesterday…wasn’t. That’s was all quite strange. I keep trying to imagine how that could happen, but just can’t.

Anyway, they’ve published the remarks, which were apparently delivered extemporaneously, and are in German, so I really can’t even make a pass at translating them. I’m sure once the Vatican Information Service sends out their daily report, we’ll have a synopsis, at least. Here’s his homily. Maybe that’s what was extemporaneous. I really have no idea at this point.
